I looked into this and it seems from googles report that smokefreequitmeter.com isnt actually supplying any malware, so this is not their fault in anyway, but I just wanted to inform you and i will be informing them that the server they are hosted on seems to be infected. I have gotten google malware warnings on several pages looking through ECF tonight, and followed the links to find more info and thats the info I received.

just tried to go to the site, this is one of the broken banners that has been broken for a while now btw.
I'm getting the same malware warning. It's preventing me from reading a lot of posts and threads. I'm going to take down my quit meter (I can't remember at the moment exactly where I got mine from - smoke without fire perhaps and I think it was a UK site - is this one of the problem banners?) - maybe we should take our quit meters down? At least until someone can figure out what the problem is?
ECF could just be trying to enable some cookies. I had this kind of issue elsewhere in the past, I think I had to do something in FF options to allow cookies for that site. Hard to remember.
its smokefreequitmeter.com, and no I wouldnt be concerned.. just wanted to bring it to the attention of the mods.. maybe I will message one of them, dunno what they can do. anyway, that is the only sig generator affected, and its something on their server (someone else not them) and according to google they have not been distributing malware, but their ip is associated with another site that is. Again this is not their fault, it is their hosts job to fix it.
I am not gonna say you are 100% safe, but from my experience you shouldnt have any problems.. Ive been clicking to show the page. Unfortionatley if ECF continues to let it on here, their whole site will be flagged for malware distribution even if there is nothing being distributed.
Its the whole guilty by association, the bot sees that people are getting the warning on this site, and flags this site.

Can't this be fixed??
I really need this quitmeter to come back, I am nearing a year and I can't even remember the day!!! 
I think I'm at 330-340, something like that.

I went looking for what was up with a meter when I lost it and found this in the quitsmoking message board. This link takes you to the 3rd page where a Norton warning was posted by a member there.

We're going to block that particular sig generator until these issues are worked out. Sorry for the inconvenience. People may want to consider using a different quit meter until such a time as they get their issues resolved.
check out the ones I wrote for altsmoke / Vapornine hehe.
@AngusATAT : their sig generator hasnt been working for weeks anyway. Glad to see you taking initiative and taking care of this, would hate to see ECF end up googles malware list.

I haven't had any warnings so far. But it could be the security supplied by my internet provider, is doing it's job.
Bah humbug..gotta find a new one, I tried jgdovin's, but apparently if you smoke any amount under 1 pack a day it doesn't generate correctly..
So I noticed my sig empty, I had the smokfreequitmeter there.
Did it get removed?
I understand it was blocked, but I no longer have the link to it, in case it comes back.
Edit:link came back, nothing more to see here. But I do want this to come back very soon, my 1yr is very very soon.

the smokefree one I had too, for a year! It's been down for quite a while, a couple weeks give or take. It is from UK.
I did get a malware alert also. I went to a cached (older one) but the bells went off again. I think somebody skanked them, it was the best MHO. Hope they get it up and running again, I got kind of attached to it.
I did email the webmaster, no reply.

I noticed this also. Someone need to create one that you can put in the number of cigs you smoked per day.
Oh, but you do. It's there, it's just been blocked from loading. If it comes back up and is all clear and we allow it again then it'll re-appear.
